Currently your game is 10% great, 30% okay and 60% bad. Here is the free of charge plan how fix Starfield: 1. Add more meaningful content and quests, Bounty hunters questline is a good start but it is taking you too long to add it. More quests within one landing zone please. We do not enjoy flying for a book to another planet system. 2. Cut of 90% of the planets and star systems, and fill up the rest with non repeating locations, add a unique landmark location to each big planet, landmark loacation sould give a skill point as a reward. 3. Give us the possibility to fly in our ships on planets, take off and land on planets like it is done in No Mans Sky and Outlaws, do not tell us that your engine cannot do it.

It makes no sense that these bums now suddenly know how to find House Va'Ruun now out of no where when Va'Ruun agents don't even know the location once they leave.

Bethesda was never about a seamless experience. None of their games have it and I don't expect it to happen ever. There will always be a loading screen and I know it even before I buy any Bethesda game. They are just built that way. It is like saying "Ubisoft games will always have chests and collectibles spread across the map". But what every Bethesda game has is the feeling of being full. There are always things to do and the customisation is really deep. The level of interaction is superb. See a door? you can open and enter. See a bed? you can sleep. See a couch? You can sit. See a safe? You can unlock? See a person? You can talk to em. See ANY DAMN THING and you can interact with it. The journey in the game is yours and you are in control. You meet people, talk to them and sometimes become a part of their story. Does Starfield have all of this? Yes!.

Don't forget that they fixed ammo not being craftable, by instead making a key component to craft ammo itself not craftable. So now instead of waiting outside shops to buy ammo, you get to wait outside shops to buy ammo crafting ingredients. Can't let outposts serve an actual purpose.....

I'm planning on finishing my first character soon and starting a new one to align with Va'ruun and cozy up to Andreja.^^

Every alien creature shown in this preview was a reskin of fauna already present in the base game. Even the "new" vortex horrors use the same model as the hostile creatures players can encounter in the oil rig point of interest that can randomly appear on planets; they just added a sparkly cloak effect. Color me unimpressed... Finish the base game before trying to sell new (low effort, incomplete) content. Every paid "Official Creation" is content that should have been the game from the start, and the game is still buggier than Skyrim and has incomplete systems.

You need to improve the creation engine vastly before releasing TS6 guys. Delay the game if needed, we did not wait this long to have an above average game. We want the same feeling we all got while playing skyrim, groundbreaking immersion, and that will not happen with the dated technologies of the current itteration of the creation engine. Please take a look at the witcher 3 and cyberpunk engine. I'm just a random BGS player.

[@skyriminspace]

I absolutely get the same feeling of immersion & wonder from starfield that i did playing OG skyrim way back in 2011.

[@bettyblue2100]

@skyriminspace I'm glad you did, but I didn't. Most likely, because I've played other games in the meantime that have pushed the genre beyond what bethesda did with starfield. They need to upgrade the animations, the transitions(loading screens), the facial expressions, and body language during dialogs. Once they've upgraded all of those, they need to tie it all up together with the BGS magic. Only then TS6 will be better than TS5.

Why even make the base game about having 1000+ planets to explore then make the DLC all about curated, single location content? Why not instead have something like "100+ new randomly placed POI to explore"? So now we have one cool planet and a thousand boring ones. This seems like an admission that their original design was flawed.

Yep, that's why it's so incredible they went for a space game. They were going to have to compromise the moment they settled on the setting. Bethesda maps are little, a fraction of a region, a dot if compared to a continent, invisible compared to a planet, even a scaled-down one. For them to decide to go for a space game it meant they had to scrap all they knew about map design. Whatever solution it was going to be controversial.
